Oct 11, 2018 By Christopher Roberts CHVRCHES

Scottish electro-pop trio CHVRCHES released a new album, Love Is Dead, back in May via Glassnote. Now they have stopped by Ellen to make their daytime television debut and perform “Miracle,” a song that seems to be the big single from Love Is Dead (for example, it was played in this week’s episode of the FOX drama 9-1-1, while the firefighters were rescuing someone). Singer Lauren Mayberry was decked out in a long shiny dress that almost looked like fish scales. Her stage presence was apparent, as she spun around the TV studio or struck various poses. Watch the performance below.

Previously CHVRCHES shared Love Is Dead‘s first four singles, “Get Out” (which was our #1 Song of the Week), “My Enemy” (which features the guest vocals of Matt Berninger of The National and EL VY and was also one of our Songs of the Week), the ultra shiny “Never Say Die” (which was once again one of our Songs of the Week), and “Miracle” (as well as a science fiction-themed video for “Miracle”).

Greg Kurstin (Adele, Tegan and Sara) co-produced nine of the album’s 13 songs and Steve Mac produced one song, “Miracle.” CHVRCHES are Lauren Mayberry, Iain Cook, and Martin Doherty.

CHVRCHES were on the cover of one of our print issues in 2015 and you can read the in-depth 8-page 5,600-word cover story feature on the band here. You can also read our bonus digital magazine Q&A with them here.
